E-Psych Today™ & The Behavioral Health Survey Who is E-Psych Today? E-Psych Today (“EPT”) is a telehealth company that provides virtual treatment options for their subscribers. What Does E-Psych Today Offer? A number of tools to improve Telehealth, but primarily a Computer Generated Behavioral Health Survey. Why is this Telemental Health Survey Offered? Most mental health profiles detect one condition at a time, typically just depression. This single-condition approach can result in under-recognition and misdiagnosis of other common conditions. NIMH has endorsed a more multi-dimensional approach to mental health suggesting that symptoms from across a range of common diagnostic categories should be assessed. The EPT approach utilizes a multi-dimensional assessment tool. It tracks FIVE of the most prevalent issues producing quantifiable results for PTSD, Bipolar, Depression, Anxiety, and Addiction. This survey is clinically validated, has Medicare/Medicaid approval, and is NCQA certified. Who Takes the Survey? The survey is approved for all English and Spanish speaking patients. How Does the Survey Work? 1. Once patient data is entered into the EPT system, log-in information is generated. 2. The patient then answers the 27-question survey on an EPT provided tablet and the test is completed. 3. The test can be taken at home, office, clinic or retirement setting and only takes 10 minutes. 4. A detailed graphic and narrative report is generated and the results are immediately available. 5. The survey can be completed several times during the year to assess patient progress. How Does the Survey Benefit a Practice? (Practice = Nursing Homes, Hospitals, Clinics, Out-Patient Practices) 1. Utilizing the survey periodically will provide a longitudinal view of a patient’s mental well-being and when combined with patient’s medical data, will take patient care to another level. 2. The Practice bills and gets reimbursed from Medicare/Medicaid or Commercial Insurance for each survey administered, then pays EPT a significantly lower amount for each survey. 3. A more robust healthcare model is created while generating A NEW REVENUE STREAM for the practice. By administering this survey, it is the goal of EPT to: 1. Provide better mental health care to patients. 2. Offer quantifiable data to assist in better understanding the mental health of patients. 3. Provide integration of medical and mental health data for a holistic picture. 4. Reduce overall insurance costs via early identification of problems resulting in early intervention. 5. Provide a new revenue stream to Practices. In Summary, the Behavioral Health Survey • Is SIMPLE for patients to take • Is EASY to administer • Is CONVENIENT and BENEFICIAL for patients • PRODUCES measurable results
• GENERATES a new revenue stream for practices This is all accomplished with zero cash outlay and no additional personnel requirements from the practice. A sample result for a fictional patient follows…
